,,,sort of.
Democrats
Nailed it--Clinton won over Sanders in a squeaker and O'Malley has pulled out of the race.
For what it's worth, I'm really beginning to believe Sanders can win the nomination.
Republicans
Can't win 'em all--Cruz ended up topping Trump, but I got Rubio in third (where pretty much every poll had him finishing--can't say I'm a science denier!). Huckabee, Paul, and Santorum have all ceased their campaigns as I predicted. Jim Gilmore, on the other hand, told Rachel Maddow that if he got one vote, one stinking vote, he'd consider it a victory. He got 12 (!) so one supposes he feels he's cruising to the nomination now. It remains to be seen if he can top that total in New Hampshire.
Not sure if Trump's campaign implodes at this point or passes its first gut check, though if I had to bet a dollar on it I'd put it on an implosion.
Not sure if I'd rather face Cruz or Rubio in November--Cruz is a little more cutthroat, but Rubio's got the traditional media believing he's a credible candidate instead of the lightweight he actually is.
Either way, I still think it's the Democrats race to lose.

Wrong!
For shits and grins (and it'll probably be a lot more shits than grins) here's my fearless forecast for tomorrow night's Iowa Caucus:
Democrats
Hillary Clinton wins a squeaker over Bernie Sanders. O'Malley is out of the race before the week is over.
Republicans
Donald Trump wins a close one over Ted Cruz. Marco Rubio finishes third. Jeb! Bush stays in the race waiting for South Carolina to put the final nail in his coffin. Christie and Kasich have put all their chips in the pot for New Hampshire so they live to fight another week. Fiorina stays in because the big money boys want a woman to stay in the race to bash Hillary because somehow in their small little minds that makes it seem fairer to the rest of America. Carson fights another week because he's delusional. Huckabee, Santorum, Paul, and Gilmore pull the plugs on their comatose campaigns.
Just remember when your preferred candidate does much better than my prediction you know who to thank....
